I'm particularly interested to hear if those with fine art or psychology degrees are actually using them/working in that field? But all degrees really? Do you think your was worth the time and financial commitment?

Got an arts degree, got a 2:2 which counts for nothing so no, never used it.
Had an awesome 3 years though

My first degree, yes. My MA - not at all. Waste of money though I had a fab time doing it.

I read for my degree in Psychology and Criminal Behaviour because I found being a lone parent at home boring. I've a job now and only use the skills I learnt from my degree to make me seem slightly more interesting Wink

Got a 2:1 with next to no effort but was a nice excuse to get out the house and attend several festivals a year Grin
